Here’s a few details on how the Health Care Reform Bill impacts the Healthy Aging Program and funds the Child Obesity Demonstration Project.
Healthy Aging: Preventive Services for Adults 55-64
A grant program for state and local health departments and Indian tribes will be established. The grant will be used to provide public health interventions, preventive screenings, and referral/treatment for chronic diseases for individuals 55-64 years-old. Some of the intervention activities include improved nutrition and increased physical activity levels.
Child Obesity Demonstration Project
The Child Obesity Demonstration Project will be fully funded with $25 million. The goal of the project will be to reduce childhood obesity in community-based settings, including schools. The project will provide education, counseling and training activities.

The largest ever controlled trial of weight loss plans found when it comes to weight loss, the bottom line always comes down to calories.
The study was completed by researchers at Harvard and Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Louisiana. Researchers evaluated the results of four different diets providing different levels of fat, carbohydrates, and protein, including a diet similar to the low fat Ornish diet and high protein/low carb Atkins plan. The dieters were encouraged to reduce caloric intake 750 calorie, exercise 90 minutes/week, and keep a food journal.
Weight loss results ranged from a 50 pound loss to a 5 pound gain. The bottom line was reducing caloric intake and sticking with the weight loss plan. Whether the diet was low fat or high protein or whatever, did not have an have an influence.
So, if you want to lose weight you need to find a plan you can stick with for the long term. If you’ve been following my posts, you know I’m “pro” making healthy lifestyle changes and “anti” dieting. I’d love to help you by evaluating your current dietary habits and providing a customized weight loss plan you can move through step by step to achieve your weight loss goals.
